Evans Calftone Drum Head - 12"

Evans '56 12" Calftone Drum Head

It looks like a calfskin! It sounds like a calfskin! And it feels like a calfskin! But it's not calfskin, it's Evans '56 Calftone.  Manufactured in New York from advanced synthetic materials, and fitted with D'Addario's Level 360 Technology to serve up the warm, familiar sound you love with the quality and consistency a modern drummer demands. Calftone drumheads are a synthetic alternative to traditional calfskin.

They embody the look and sound of a natural skin but with the consistency, fit, and tuning range made standard with Level 360 Technology. These heads bring out the best of a vintage kit and evoke a classic appearance and sound from modern drums.

Made with a 7mil film base and blended with unique materials, these heads are thinner than their bass heads to help optimize the sound for smaller drums, higher tunings, and greater tonal response.
